I wonder if everyone is a bit in that in-between phase when there's not much going on - I definitely found the period between the 12 and 20 week scans a bit weird as there's so little contact with anyone and not much actually happening.
@LuxeBiscuit I am definitely not glowing! Definitely more energy than the first trimester and feeling pretty good overall, but my skin is still rubbish, I have to spend ages in the mornings covering up spots!
@RobynC28 Glad to hear your scan went well. I know what you mean about all of the news stories at the moment - it's such bad timing for anybody who knows they'll be giving birth in the next few months. I keep reminding myself that the bad stories are shocking because they don't happen all the time, and that almost nobody I know has had a traumatic experience giving birth (and the couple of people who did have bad experiences were just unlucky and got good treatment when things went wrong). That's definitely helping me to rationalise things.
I'm getting really impatient to start feeling more movement - still only getting little flutters every now and again (probably only every 2-3 days) and was really hoping for more by now. I do have an anterior placenta which is probably hiding things a bit, and I keep having to remember that baby was moving loads at the anomaly scan and I couldn't feel any of it so not feeling much isn't automatically a bad sign. Not always easy to remind myself of that though, especially when people keep asking me if baby is kicking a lot!
